Cling to You

from Courage by the deadnotes

/

lyrics

you grew up as the smartest kid in your neighbourhood
but never had anything to show your friends
you had it all planned out
had your life figured out
you bought a dozen things you thought you‘d find comfort in

you tried, you tried, you tried, you tried
always doomed to miss your goal
sometimes it‘s better not to cling to love

nothing ever hits harder than the heaviest heartache
and nostalgia burns you from the inside out

follow your instincts
fuck your commitements
leave no space for ever lasting doubts
your pale but flawless skin
brace yourself for controversy

you tried, you tried, you tried, you tried
always doomed to miss your goal
sometimes it‘s better not to cling to love

your loss of temper rendered useless
you won‘t even get close
don‘t let your sympathy wear out

heard someone speaking „oh my god“
how did we get so old
heard someone whisper „oh my god“
how did we get so old

heard someone screaming „oh my god“
how did we get so old
heard someone shrieking „oh my god“
how did we turn so old

from „playgrounds at age 14“
I wish I lived life like you
over „dying 18 years old“
to a couch, aged 22
